Re: Definition of "resident" for supporting Family Class Applications (unique case)
I am just so frustrated with this process. I know, I know. I should be in Canada and no worries. My frustration is purely aimed at our government. I can understand parents should not be priority, but the current treatment cannot even be considered SECONDARY priority.
Thank you to everyone who have bothered to post on my inquiries.

If you move from Quebec to any oher province then the Quebec application becomes invalid and a new application must be submitted (page 14, IMM 5196 and page 27, IP2).
To be eligible to sponsor parents the principal sponsor must reside in Canada during the application process. If the principal sponsor lives outside Canada then they are only eligible to sponsor a spouse, commonlaw or conjugal partner, or a dependant child who does not have any dependant children of their own (page 10, IMM 5196 and page 42, IP2).
Pages 41 and 42 of document IP2 setout residency requirements and possible checks for sponsors.

I'm sorry, I know about IMM 5196, but where can I find a copy of IP2???
Thanks for your feeback...

You can find all the necessary publications under "media and publications" at the top of the main CIC page. Click on Policy and Program manuals and then on Inland Processing.
